Arrived in Quebec

Quebec has definite tourist possibilities! Except that the winter tourist timetable starts on 1 November: that’s Tuesday. So decisions on what to do this afternoon and tomorrow …  at least the sun is peeking through.  Turns out they do have sun in Canada.

This afternoon was the Citadel – an army base and Governor General’s second residence at the highest point of Quebec. Right on the edge of the cliff overlooking the river so that gives good protection from invasion.  Then fortified walls around the rest. Great views.

I then walked a bit of the wall around the old town – North America’s only walled town.

Then a bit of a wander to get my bearings. Noted that the yellow snow poles are already out to keep pedestrians on the paths once the snow comes.

And found the cold & flu capsules at the bottom of my travelling apothecary. Reckon I’ll need them against the cough and sneezes by tomorrow. But I’m keeping warm and all is good.
